Beautiful old house set in a beautiful Borders town. Peebles is quite lovely and the whole area is filled with natural beauty. Mrs Muir is certainly a character and you cannot help but like her. However we certainly did not like staying in Whitestone House. Our room was quite simply a shoe box and the bed was the most uncomfortable bed I have ever slept in. I don't think we got more than 3 hours sleep a night. Breakfast was edible but a fiasco over where to sit. Mrs Muir gets extremely confused about things generally. We called it the 'Faulty Towers' of our trip and for that reason will never forget it - but sadly not for the right reasons! more

Our host was Mrs Muir and she certainly provided some entertainment for my wife and I. This lovely lady was in her mid 80's and had a difficult time coping with her busy B&B and many times her guests felt like helping her. Our room was small as are most rooms with the exception of one. They all have a shared bath (there are two full baths in the upstairs). Our sheets did not fit the bed properly and our waking moments were filled with attempting to wrestle that elusive sheet corner from each other. The sheets also were so thin, we believe they are now being used as veils in Arabia!
The towels are dried in the outdoor sun and stiff as boards and rough as nails.
Day 1 - Breakfast is between 8:00 and 8:45 and don't you be late! There were 9...
